I posted the problem on tumblr, so if you could all repost and spread it around that would be nice.

The artist in offence here is named Skeezoo.

The links to his HF and his DA where I originally commissioned is on my tumblr post.

It's very far past the due date to get my money back, almost a year ago. I try to give people the benefit of the doubt, but when there's no contact after a few messages on all art sites and email, then there's nothing else to do but warn others. He's also been uploading pictures to his DA account, so he's not inactive or unable to draw.

I hope this helps future buyers and sadly I've recently come across more people who may potentially be doing the same. It's sad to have to open this forum and post, but people do need to be aware and spread the news.
